Healthy Fast Food – What is that?

Healthy fast food is what your body needs. What body needs is Balance Nutrition.

Ideal type of healthy fast food fullfil these criteria:

• It is with moderate calories
• Contains good sources of protein from plant
• Contains sufficient fiber, essential vitamin and minerals
• Preparing time is as little as a minute

What a healthy fast food do to us?

• Managing our weight
• Reaching our fitness goals
• Look best for caring my skin and body
• Addressing specific nutritional needs that we have.

All these can only start with bringing nutrition into the balance. Health is often affected by our body being deprived with the essential nutrients to function properly. In short, lack of balance nutrition. The surprising truth is most people aren’t getting the balance nutrition that they need.

How Obesity And Overweight Issue Happens

A lack of balance nutrition and poor eating can have many health consequences. Some more visible than other. One of the visible consequences is Obesity. Around the world, 1 Billion adults are overweight and 300 Millions are consider as obese; according to WHO. This also leads to common chronic diseases such as coronary heart  disease and type 2 diabetes.

With busy, stressful lifestyle with little time to make healthy food drink choices, and add on with fast food and snacks readily and easily available, your body often missed out necessary vitamin, minerals, fiber and protein. There are many reasons for weight gain issues such as large portion of meals, snacking, sandwiches, unhealthy ready meals are often the culprit. Also lack of time, knowledge and desire. Missing lunch and compensate with large dinner. This means many of us still not getting healthy balance nutrition throughout the day.

Danger of Deficiency of Balance Nutrition

Deficiency in balance nutrients intake is just bad. Even if you believe that you are eating well, you still can be  missing out from the vital nutrients. Take for example, vegetarians needs to be sure to get Vitamin B12 which is vital for the nervous system. Another example is fruits and vegetables. Everyone should be getting at least 5 servings a day.

In short 9 out of 10 times, we simply don’t realize the impact of what we are consuming is. Even it is not showing on your body yet. Lacking of balance nutrition can add to health challenges later on.

Eating Less To Lose Weight: Correct or Wrong?

When I tried to promote to people about healthy way to lose weight, one of my subscriber replied to my email and she said..

i have lose 8 kg already just less eat as usual

My replied to her, how long can you afford eating less to lose weight? Can you afford to eat lesser and lesser for the rest of your lives just to maintain and keeping the weight off? Does she knows that initial stage of eating less to lose weight will work so effectively and that is the reason why she is losing 8kgs just by eating less to lose weight. Eating less to lose weight without eating a healthy diet, is not the right way to lose weight. This is because when a person started eating less and not eating a healthy diet, let’s say insufficient of protein intake. What the body will do is, it will steal protein from your muscles and organs. Then, when you are losing your weight, it could be losing the muscles mass.

Eating less to lose weight will work because it is a sudden cut on the amount of calories intake to the body. When a person takes lesser calories than the body needs, automatically the person will experience weight loss. Cutting down calories is the right way to lose weight, but cutting down the nutrients needed by the body is a huge No No.

What is your body telling you when your body is not getting the nutrients needed?

When your body is lack of the nutrition needed, you will notice few things like:

• Dry skin
• Easily crack nails
• Coarse hair
• Easily feeling tired
• Looking pale
• No energy

When your body is telling you something, this shows your body is telling you about your weight loss plan.

If your body starts  telling you something that means you are under go an unhealthy way of weight loss. Your body is lacking the nutrients needed. A lot of people are neglecting this and take it easy.  What is the point that you can lose weight, then you don’t look attractive? Out of the sudden you can lose weight, but you look so unattractive because you are easily feeling tired, looking pale as if a sick person and lack of energy? Is this called the success in losing weight? Do you dare to teach people to lose weight like you do even you have lost a lot of weight using your own weight loss plan which is showing that your body is lacking of the balance nutrition needed by your body?

Please: Don’t be the blind person who leads another blind person…

Healthy weight loss is about losing weight in a healthy way by having the right diet. Eating less is not considered as eating healthy. Eating healthy must include balance nutrition into your daily diet.

Let me explain about Nutrition in a simple way to understand. Our human body needs a lot of things such as:

1. Protein – to help build and maintain lean muscle mass
2. Carbs – provide the body’s main source
   
3. Unsaturated fats – to achieve and maintain a healthy heart
4. Vitamin & Minerals - for growth and development
   
5. Omega 3 fatty acids – for healthy heart, brain, and heart function of eyes, skin, joints, hair and immune system
   
6. Fibre – to support the body’s natural elimination of waste and toxins
7. Water - for hydration
   
8. Exercise & Relaxation – for a healthy heart

If we don’t get the right amounts then we will be getting Imbalance Nutrition. Imbalance nutrition means we are getting nutrients but in the wrong proportions like the picture below:

Imbalance Nutrition means excess of sugar, salt, fats, preservatives and food coloring. We have to admit that in our modern diet is lacking in nutrition and our health suffers. That is because of the deficiency in vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein, amino acids, phytonutrients and antioxidant.

“WHO: The global epidemic of overweight and obesity is rapidly becoming a major public health problem…The increasing prevalence of overweight and obesity is associated with many diet-related chronic diseases including diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, stroke, hypertension and certain cancers”

You might be thinking what should be the right food to eat and what kind of nutrition to take. No worries, here are some tips on how to choose a core nutrition for your daily needs and what will be the cause of lacking or excess for each of it:

• Calories which is lower than any food – If you have too much or excess calories this will cause weight problems.
• Nutrients needed  – Deficiency in vitamins, calcium, protein will cause nail and hair problems. Lack of vitamins of fatty oils will cause dry skin.
• Protein – Lack of protein can cause loss of muscle mass, decrease immunity as well as weakening of heart and respiratory system.

And I’m pretty sure there are a lot of “??” in your head, yeah? Pretty challenging on the nutrition part The truth is, we can only get balance nutrition from nutritional health food products, which in another terms we called it the food supplement. And how to choose the right kind of nutritional health food? Here are some guidelines:
